Paul’s “isolationism” is a bit of a misnomer. He’s a total free trader. However if you asked him about how to respond to other countries tariffs I think he’d say apply similar tariffs. Where he falls is the Iran type question. He is stuck in the rationality of MAD (US/USSR) vs the psychosis of Iran.

To the degree that he were an Austrian (which I believe would be 100%), he would not recommend retaliatory tariffs.
